Diving with a firend, just relaxing, what agreat game. --- End quote --- If only I could play online across regions. Even if I have the PAL game, I need to somehow get an IP in Europe for the Nintendo servers to let me play online. I don't know why, considering it's just P2P. --- End quote --- Nintendo does that too? Ip blocking? I thought only Microsoft were that strict. They block a lot of marketplace content via IP check. I created a fake UK account to download the DLC and arcade games that are blocked in Germany but these bastards check the IP. You have to be pretty fast and get the stuff when it's released or you're screwed. I was lucky to get Doom 2 and the Gears Of War 2 All Fronts DLC. I'm sure they're blocked by now. Doom, Duke Nukem, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, they're all blocked. Hell, they even block the themes from Gears Of War. I can't download the free mappack for Gears 1 because of IP check :( You can use a proxy or use a VPN tunnel to bypass all that, but that exceeds my computer knowledge. I figure the next time I go on vacation in other European countries I just bring my Xbox with me. Sony doesn't bother by the way. They don't block IPs. The only thing you have to worry about is getting PSN cards in the currency you need. |
